As per the Companies Act, 2013, there is no requirement of appointing CFO, or MD or WTD in private Cos. Still, many companies do so, and also file the appointment in the ROC, and follow procedure under Section 196 (like term of appointment 5 years, approval by members at subsequent general meeting etc.) Why is this done?

If you see, most of the such cases are for Whole-time Directors. The reason is, if a Director is receiving salary from a company, then he should be treated as 'WTD', by virtue of receiving salary.
